Now this is starting to get surreal - nearly a month ago the two Greenpeace activists who exposed the stolen whale meat scandal were arrested. Outraged greenpeace protestors took to the streets world wide. Now they have a video.

Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s ludicrous these guys were arrested (go on sign the petition, you know you want to) but the Tokyo Two?? It’s not like they’re being accused of blowing up a pub.

I have a theory, Greenpeace have infiltrated the Japanese Police Force and conspired to throw the book at the activists. After all any publicity is good publicity and persecuting people for doing the right thing is nearly as galvanizing to the public as slaughtering majestic animals. I’m sure there is a mastermind living in a forest some where planning the whole thing. With a laptop. If the Japanese parliament announces legislation proposing capital punishment for petty larceny then you will have confirmation that the mastermind’s reach is indeed great.

One thing is for sure the funniest thing has to be the comments on youtube - this should really be a soap opera.
